Miles Davis at Plugged Nickel, Chicago (CBS Sony - Japan)

I find that I listen to this mostly for Miles and Tony Williams. I know that the others are there, but Wayne Shorter's and Herbie Hancock's playing has always seemed emotionally distant to me. It's no doubt a personal quirk - I know many others love their playing - but I just don't feel much of a connection to their music.

I picked up a pile of records yesterday, so last night I listened to Enchance by Billy Hart (fantastic) and then this morning over coffee it was Groovin' w/Idrees Sulieman, Horace Parlan, Mads Vinding, and once again, Billy Hart on Steeple Chase.

Followed by Woody Shaw's Master of the Art on Elektra/Musician and Major Changes w/ Frank Morgan and the McCoy Tyner Trio.

'Mike Taylor Remembered' (Trunk Records). With Neil Ardley, Ian Carr, Norma Winstone, Barbara Thompson, Jon Hiseman, Dave Gelly etc.

Wow - a lost Dennis Preston Lansdowne classic. Another gem from Trunk Records, and delivered to the door in record time. :tup

My Man - Walter Gates and his Orchestra - Swan label.

The very first track is "Some Of These Days" and it always lifts my spirits. That and rest of the album is reminiscent of David Rose's "The Stripper." Love it!!

I vaguely remember the name Walter Gates. Didn't he have a big pop hit in the early sixties? Or am I thinking of someone else? Can you remind me some more, Patricia?

Just remembered - that was Walter Brennan :) I never heard of Walter Gates. Who he?
